Women of Wisdom and Action

Some connections have purposeful longevity, and both Sederia and Georgia believe their introduction was no accident.  Upon meeting in 2015, both had just completed the near same PTSD healing journey spanning several decades of learning and growing.

Sederia's life as Executive Director of Believing A Miracle, pastor, teacher, real estate professional, entrepreneur and artist brings wisdom into a whole person approach to life recovery.  Georgia's experience as President of BrightSpot Communities, business consultant, venture developer, minister and artist brings insight into the resource building.  Together they work to bring healing to women, girls, and the communities that embrace and protect them.

The Function of Forgiveness in

the Healing Process

To compassionately understand another human being who may be your enemy or abuser is the marker of deep healing and a personal justice milestone.   It does not justify actions, but it allows you to truly rise above and beyond the experience as a part of your identity; leaving it behind like unremembered snake skin.  

No one can hold you down when you are free like that; when beginnings are clean and the power is purely

yours.

Rise With Honor emerged as a global business vision in 2016; with intentions for replicating the conference-to-community business plan, in cities across the U.S., then worldwide. 

The Band of Brothers

In collaboration with interested co-leaders, RWH is launching The Band of Brothers Project; a listening-to-men project focused on men's thoughts on the current sexual assault “justice movement”.

Individual or group interviews are conducted with men, encouraging real, honest discussion around a central question:  "why do men sexually assault and harass women?"

With the aim of learning and healing for both men and women, The Band of Brothers will serve as a space for listening, recording, and analyzing data. Information collected will be used to shape the workshop topics for the 3rd Day of the Conference and will be shared with the larger learning community.
